I try to help you though the hardest of times

Your heart is in your throat & I'm speaking my mind

Though it looks as if it's over

I'm still not over you

I suddenly felt someone jump on top of me as I walked to my usually lunch spot outdoors. I heaved forward at the sudden attack from behind. I landed on the ground, hard, a slender arm shoved me over so I could see my attacker, Lizzie? I blinked, tears were running down her cheeks, her hair draped & falling like a sleek curtain blocking sight in front of me. No none noticed the- well interesting position I was in with her since my usually lunch spot is so far from others were only me & Miranda eat.

"I'm sorry Gordo, I'm sorry!" she cried sobbing.

'Cause I still love you like I did before

I know for sure you still feel the same way I do

If only she knew

Whoa

I sat up as she cried into my shirt. I pulled her away to see her face, she kneeled there on the grass beside me, her eyes pleading with me. I loved her & I still do. I lifted her chin up sadly.

Oh, I'm still not over you

"God, I wanted popularity so badly, I just couldn't think straight!" she cried out, "It was like this disease that ate away at me little by little!"

"But what now?" I asked her, a disease that ate away at your soul, maybe it was true.

She looked up at me, her eyes wide, "I love you Gordo, please, I'm giving it up, I won't let it control me. If I get popular it'll because of the real me." She promised kissing my nose. "Please Gordo."

"Lizzie, I loved you so much-" I felt my throat clog & I squeezed my eyes shut, "I still do." I said roughly, "but I can't be with you Lizzie." I opened my eyes & saw the pain & remorse in her eyes.

She looked away, "Why not?" she said in a pained whispered that came out rough & soft.

"Lizzie, whether you realized it or not, your really hurt me when you just used me & threw me out like a old tee shirt. It takes time to heal Lizzie." I stared into her hazel eyes, 'I'm sorry' was all I was thinking, I wanted to just hold her so bad but I restrained myself. "I'm going out with Miranda as well. Why don't you talk to her about your friendship now?" I finished softly wiping away a few remaining tears.

I nodded numbly, asked where she was, & walked away. I didn't go to the library thought, I took my car & went directly home & cried my eyes out. I was hating the world at the moment but I guess over time my anger at Miranda faded. I had hurt Gordo, bad. I needed to give time for us to heal, but one day I'll fix everything, I promise. I smiled making myself feel better, 'She can't love him like I do, she'll never love him like I do. I'll win him back, I promise.'

'Cause I still love you like I did before

I know for sure you still feel the same way I do

Whoa

'Cause I'll never ever walk away I'll find away

She could never love you the way I do

If only she knew

I called up Miranda that afternoon & talked for hours, trying to make up what had been lost. I was listening & wishing with all my might that she'd just 'SHUT UP' Finally she had to go, thank god! I reminded myself sternly that I need Miranda to get Gordo back. Miranda talked about how much she loved Gordo, right… 'Miranda, you fool, Gordo's mine. If she only knew…' I smirked, 'all mine' I thought as I called up Kate & Claire for three-way, now to get started on a plan…

If only she knew, oh yeah

Na na na na na na na na
